n-C_3H_7I和i-C_3H_7I在266nm的光解:烷基自由基分支化对C—I解离动力学的影响(英文)

结合共振增强多光子电离(REMPI)方案,利用离子影像技术研究了n-C3H7I和i-C3H7I分子的光解动力学.分析和比较了它们光解过程中所涉及的能量分配和解离态间的非绝热跃迁信息.它们的I(2P3/2)产物通道的内能所占百分比要大于I*(2P1/2)产物通道的.随着烷烃自由基变得更加的分支化,一方面,原子碎片(I和I*)的能量分布明显变宽,暗示了α-碳原子上的烷基具有更复杂的振转模式;另一方面,在266nm光子的泵浦下,尽管两分子3Q0邝X跃迁的谐振强度表现出很小的差别,但是,产生I*碎片的几率明显降低,从n-C3H7I的0.72降到i-C3H7I的0.46.这可以归因于在光解i-C3H7I过程中弯曲振动模式对产生I和I*的贡献要比n-C3H7I光解过程中弯曲振动模式对I和I*的贡献更明显,使得3Q0与1Q1态之间的非绝热跃迁得到增强.此外,n-C3H7I和i-C3H7I的3Q0邝X跃迁并不完全是平行跃迁,对应的跃迁偶极矩与键轴间的夹角分别约为15°和18°.

Nonlinear wave-packet interferometry and molecular state reconstruction in a vibrating and rotating diatomic molecule

We formulate two-color nonlinear wave-packet interferometry (WPI) for application to a diatomic molecule in the gas phase and show that this form of heterodyne-detected multidimensional electronic spectroscopy will permit the reconstruction of photoinduced rovibrational wave packets from experimental data. Using two phase-locked pulse pairs, each resonant with a different electronic transition, nonlinear WPI detects the quadrilinear interference contributions to the population of an excited electronic state. Combining measurements taken with different phase-locking angles isolates various quadrilinear interference terms. One such term gives the complex overlap between a propagated one-pulse target wave packet and a variable three-pulse reference wave packet. The two-dimensional interferogram in the time domain specifies the complex-valued overlap of the given target state with a collection of variable reference states. An inversion procedure based on singular-value decomposition enables reconstruction of the target wave packet from the interferogram without prior detailed characterization of the nuclear Hamiltonian under which the target propagates. With numerically calculated nonlinear WPI signals subject to Gaussian noise, we demonstrate the reconstruction of a rovibrational wave packet launched from the A state and propagated in the E state of Li2.     

Population transfer to excited vibrational levels of H2 molecule by stimulated hyper-Raman passage with chirped laser pulses

We have theoretically investigated the population transfer from the initial ground rovibrational level v(g)=0, J(g)=0 to the final rovibrational levels v(f)=1,2, J(f)=0 of the ground electronic state X (1)Sigma(g) (+) via the resonant intermediate level v(i)=6, J(i)=0 of the excited electronic state EF (1)Sigma(g) (+) of H(2) molecule by (2+2)-photon stimulated hyper-Raman passage (STIHRP). The density matrix technique has been employed to evaluate the population transfer to the final target levels using linearly chirped pump and Stokes laser pulses with different chirp rates. Both the pulses are considered to have the same temporal shape, pulse width, and linear parallel polarizations. We have studied in detail the dependence of the population transfer on the set of laser parameters for pulse (peak) intensities in the ranges of 1.5 x 10(11)-1.0 x 10(12) and 1.0 x 10(12)-7.0 x 10(12) W/cm(2). The corresponding pulse widths (full width at half maximum) are of the order of 115-200 and 15-30 ps. We have found that the chirp rate parameters can be optimized to achieve almost complete population transfer from the ground (g) to the final (f) target levels. This, to our knowledge, is the first application of a (2+2)-photon STIHRP process with chirpings to a model molecular system (H(2)). The study demonstrates the suitability of the chirped (2+2)-photon STIHRP technique for selective and almost total inversion of vibrational population in a diatomic molecule.     

Selective photodissociation in diatomic molecules by dynamical Stark-shift control

Selective population transfer in electronic states of dissociative molecular systems is illustrated by adopting a control scheme based on Stark-chirped rapid adiabatic passage (SCRAP). In contrast to the discrete N-level system, dynamical Stark shift is induced in a more complex manner in the molecular electronic states. Wavepacket dynamics on the light-induced potentials, which are determined by the detuning of the pump pulse, can be controlled by additional Stark pulse in the SCRAP scheme. Complete population transfer can be achieved by either lowering the energy barrier along the adiabatic passage or placing the initial wavepacket on a well-defined dressed state suitable for the control. The determination of the pulse sequence is sufficient for controlling population transfer to the target state.     

Vibrationally state-selective photoassociation by infrared sub-picosecond laserr pulses: model simulations for O + H → OH(ν)

The quantum dynamics of a photoassociation reaction in the electronic ground state controlled by an infrared picosecond laser pulse is investigated. The association reaction O + H → OH(ν) is simulated by representative wavepackets. The OH molecule to be formed is modeled as a non-rotating Morse oscillator. It is shown that the initial free continuum state of O + H can be transferred selectively into a specified vibrational bound state by interaction with an infrared laser pulse. Optimal design of the laser control field leads to high association probability with very high vibrational state selectivity.     

Intracluster stereochemistry in van der Waals complexes: steric effects in ultraviolet photodissociation of state-selected Ar-HOD/H2O

High-resolution IR-UV multiple resonance methods are employed to elucidate the photodissociation dynamics of quantum state-selected Ar-HOD and Ar-H(2)O van der Waals clusters. A single mode pulsed OPO operating in the region of the OH second overtone is used to prepare individual rovibrational states that are selectively photodissociated at specific excimer wavelengths. Subsequent fluorescence excitation of the resulting OH (OD) fragments yields dynamical information on the photofragmentation event and any resulting intracluster collisions. This technique is used to characterize spectroscopically the Pi(1(01)), nu(OH)=3<--Sigma(0(00)), v(OH)=0 overtone band of the Ar-HOD complex with an origin at 10648.27 cm(-1). The effects of Ar complexation on the dissociation dynamics are inferred by comparison of the OD photofragment quantum state distributions resulting from dissociation of single rovibrational states of the complex with those from isolated HOD photodissociation. The important role played by the initial internal state of the complex is demonstrated by comparison of the current Ar-HOD data with previously published results for the Ar-H(2)O Sigma(0(00))[03(-)> state. We interpret the dramatic differences in the dynamics of the two systems as manifestations of the nodal structure of the vibrational state in the parent complex and the way in which it governs the collision probability between the Ar atom and the escaping photofragments.     

Analysis of adiabatic passage by light-induced potentials with chirped laser pulses in three- and four-level diatomic systems

This paper describes an investigation into the process of adiabatic passage by light-induced potentials (APLIP), which was previously suggested as a method for employing two strong picosecond laser pulses to transfer the population between two electronic states. We have extended earlier numerical studies in order to assess the feasibility of an experimental implementation of the APLIP concept. APLIP has been modeled in a three-level model system based on Na2 with chirped pulses, using laser parameters available from a typical chirped pulse amplified Ti:sapphire laser. The model showed that the APLIP process remains essentially unchanged for chirped pulses of equal magnitude and the opposite, or equal and positive sign of chirp as compared to the transform-limited case. We also examined the case of additional electronic states by introduction of a fourth state that lies close to the "target," i.e., final, state. The investigation showed that there are circumstances in which a significant fraction of the population gets transferred to this state which will disrupt the APLIP process. However, by switching to this fourth state as the target state in an experiment, good transfer efficiency is recovered. The results of the extension of the original APLIP modeling to chirped pulses and additional electronic states indicate that an APLIP experimental realization should be feasible in Na2.     

Rovibrational energy transfer in the 4nu(CH) manifold of acetylene, viewed by IR-UV double-resonance spectroscopy. 4. Collision-induced quasi-continuous background effects

The 4nu(CH) rovibrational manifold around 12 700 cm(-1) in the electronic ground state, X, of acetylene (C2H2) is monitored by time-resolved infrared-ultraviolet double-resonance (IR-UV DR) spectroscopy. An IR laser pulse initially prepares rotational J states, associated with the "IR-bright" (nu1 + 3nu3) or (1 0 3 0 0)0 vibrational combination level, and subsequent collision-induced state-to-state energy transfer is probed by UV laser-induced fluorescence. Anharmonic, l-resonance, and Coriolis couplings affect the J states of interest, resulting in a congested rovibrational manifold that exhibits complex intramolecular dynamics. In preceding papers in this series, we have described three complementary forms of the IR-UV DR experiment (IR-scanned, UV-scanned, and kinetic) on collision-induced rovibrational satellites, comprising both regular even-DeltaJ features and unexpected odd-DeltaJ features. This paper examines an unusual collision-induced quasi-continuous background (CIQCB) effect that is apparently ubiquitous, accompanying regular even-DeltaJ rovibrational energy transfer and accounting for much of the observed collision-induced odd-DeltaJ satellite structure; certain IR-bright (1 0 3 0 0)0 rovibrational states (e.g., J = 12) are particularly prominent in this regard. We examine the mechanism of this CIQCB phenomenon in terms of a congested IR-dark rovibrational manifold that is populated by collisional transfer from the nearly isoenergetic IR-bright (1 0 3 0 0)0 submanifold.     

Comparative study of the photoassociation reaction of He + X+→ HeX+ (X = H,D): Including multiphoton transitions and dissociations

Using the time-dependent quantum wave packet method, the photoassociation (PA) processes of He + H ⁺→ HeH⁺ and He + D ⁺→ HeD⁺, driven by the sin²-shaped femtosecond laser pulse in the electronic ground state, including multiphoton transitions and dissociations, are investigated for a wide range of initial collision momenta spanning from 1 to 4 a.u. (or for the collision energy roughly in the ranges of 0.009∼0.148 eV and 0.006∼0.089 eV for HeH⁺ and HeD⁺ systems, respectively). It is found that, at some collision momenta, multiphoton transitions to deeply bound states are inevitable to occur and can greatly decrease the PA probability of the target state that selected is the vibrational state v = 6. For the dissociation process, the higher-order (two- and three-photon) dissociations, measured from the target state, tend to be significant at relative high collision energies, which implies that above-threshold dissociations may also be an important loss mechanism in the PA process. In addition, it is also shown that the higher-order dissociation is much stronger for HeH⁺ systems than that for HeD⁺ systems at a given collision momentum, and could be enhanced by the strong transitions among deeply bound states.     

The operations of quantum logic gates with pure and mixed initial states

The implementations of quantum logic gates realized by the rovibrational states of a C(12)O(16) molecule in the X((1)Σ(+)) electronic ground state are investigated. Optimal laser fields are obtained by using the modified multitarget optimal theory (MTOCT) which combines the maxima of the cost functional and the fidelity for state and quantum process. The projection operator technique together with modified MTOCT is used to get optimal laser fields. If initial states of the quantum gate are pure states, states at target time approach well to ideal target states. However, if the initial states are mixed states, the target states do not approach well to ideal ones. The process fidelity is introduced to investigate the reliability of the quantum gate operation driven by the optimal laser field. We found that the quantum gates operate reliably whether the initial states are pure or mixed.     

Rovibrational energy transfer in the 4nu CH manifold of acetylene viewed by IR-UV double resonance spectroscopy. 2. Perturbed states with J = 17 and 18

Collision-induced state-to-state molecular energy transfer between rovibrational states in the 12,700 cm(-1) 4nu(CH) manifold of the electronic ground state X of acetylene (C(2)H(2)) is monitored by time-resolved infrared-ultraviolet double resonance (IR-UV DR) spectroscopy. Rotational J-states associated with the (nu(1) + 3nu(3)) or (1 0 3 0 0)(0) vibrational combination level, initially prepared by an IR pulse, are probed at approximately 299, approximately 296, or approximately 323 nm with UV laser-induced fluorescence via the Alpha electronic state. The rovibrational J-states of interest belong to a congested manifold that is affected by anharmonic, l-resonance, and Coriolis couplings, yielding complex intramolecular dynamics. Consequently, collision-induced rovibrational satellites observed by IR-UV DR comprise not only regular even-DeltaJ features but also supposedly forbidden odd-DeltaJ features. A preceding paper (J. Phys. Chem. A 2003, 107, 10759) focused on low-J-value rovibrational levels of the 4nu(CH) manifold (particularly those with J = 0 and J = 1) whereas this paper examines locally perturbed states at higher values of J (particularly J = 17 and 18, which display anomalous doublet structure in IR-absorption spectra). Three complementary forms of IR-UV DR experiments (IR-scanned, UV-scanned, and kinetic) are used to address the extent to which intramolecular perturbations influence the efficiency of J-resolved collision-induced energy transfer with both even and odd DeltaJ.
